I have three teenage daughters who are currently not allowed on social media. But I want to give them some ability before they become adults. My eldest gave me a PowerPoint presentation on why she should be allowed on Snapchat, lol.

She made some good points. Her friend group has a group text and she wants to keep up with everyone but doesn’t want to get the ding notifications constantly.

Feels like a good opportunity for a Fediverse platform. Like a closed Mastodon/Pixelfed server and have some parental controls. Any projects out there?

Not a weird argument, that's the same logic you used. Just because some kids might not agree with your decisions as a parent, that doesn't mean you shouldn't make that decision. Caring what others think about your parenting style is exactly why we have so many messed up kids in the first place.
